6 medium, fresh cucumbers
3 c. plain vinegar
3 c. sugar
3 tbsp. salt
3 tsp. celery seed
3 tsp. turmeric
1 tsp. mustard seed

Put everything but the cucumbers into a kettle and bring to a good boil. You can use mixed spice, if you have it, in place of the spices above. Pour over the cucumbers which have been quartered lengthwise. They are ready to use the next day. Keep in refrigerator.
